However, I will say that I don't have many runs with the car, so I still have a lot of experimenting to do ( i.e. shift points, stronger brakes for more stall, lowering the front end, etc. )

Car ran in the 11's a couple of years ago in 45 deg. air in Michigan. (with Marty driving)
LOL...the little 4 that could.
Sooner or later AL..NHRA will have to pinch you up to N, O, P....
Especially as you tune for better ET..
Not Stock but good dose of NOS will have you near or in the 10's.

Who owned the Turbo Pinto in the 80's in Comp that drove every one crazy.
Saw him run a Point Meet at Warner Robins in the 80's.

That was probably Buddy Ingersoll. That was one wicked 2000cc engine. He lobbied to run Pro Stock with that car. Which I believe IHRA allowed him to do for a short time.

Looks like Summers' Mustang II got hit, to 155 now. BUT, only the 78 Mustang II manual trans combo got hit, nothing else.

Looks like alot of #1 qualifiers wearing Blue Ovals for a bit?

The pinto was not the Buick but he did run the Buick in IHRA pro stock for one or two events.

OK, I believe the Buick was BB/AT. Been a day or two. Yeah, remember him running IHRA Pro Stock with it. Both it and the Pinto were wicked cars My friends (the Meek Brothers) ran their D/MC Pinto around the same time Ingersol ran his.
